Indeed, theinvention may be embodied in many different forms and should not beconstrued as limited to the embodiments set forth herein; rather, theseembodiments are provided so that this disclosure will satisfy applicablelegal requirements. Like numbers refer to elements throughout. Wherepossible, any terms expressed in the singular form herein are meant toalso include the plural form and vice versa, unless explicitly statedotherwise. Also, as used herein, the term “a” and/or “an” shall mean“one or more,” even though the phrase “one or more” is also used herein.

“Entity” as used herein may refer to an individual or an organizationthat owns and/or operates an online system of networked computingdevices, systems, and/or peripheral devices on which the systemdescribed herein is implemented. The entity may be a businessorganization, a non-profit organization, a government organization, andthe like, which may routinely use various types of applications withinits enterprise environment to accomplish its organizational objectives.

“Entity system” or “data quality system” as used herein may refer to thecomputing systems, devices, software, applications, communicationshardware, and/or other resources used by the entity to perform thefunctions as described herein. Accordingly, the entity system maycomprise desktop computers, laptop computers, servers,Internet-of-Things (“IoT”) devices, networked terminals, mobilesmartphones, smart devices (e.g., smart watches), network connections,and/or other types of computing systems or devices and/or peripheralsalong with their associated applications.

“Computing system” or “computing device” as used herein may refer to anetworked computing device within the entity system. The computingsystem may include a processor, a non-transitory storage medium, acommunications device, and a display. The computing system may beconfigured to support user logins and inputs from any combination ofsimilar or disparate devices. Accordingly, the computing system may be aportable electronic device such as a smartphone, tablet, single boardcomputer, smart device, or laptop. In other embodiments, the computingsystem may be a stationary unit such as a personal desktop computer,networked terminal, IoT device, or the like.

“User” as used herein may refer to an individual who may interact withthe entity system to access the functions therein. Accordingly, the usermay be an agent, employee, associate, contractor, or other authorizedparty who may access, use, administrate, maintain, and/or manage thecomputing systems within the entity system. In other embodiments, theuser may be a client or customer of the entity.

Accordingly, as used herein the term “user device” or “mobile device”may refer to mobile phones, personal computing devices, tabletcomputers, wearable devices, and/or any portable electronic devicecapable of receiving and/or storing data therein.

“Neural network” as referred to herein may refer to a network ofcomputing nodes that use machine learning algorithms to accomplishcertain tasks. Broadly, neural networks may be used for tasks requiringpattern recognition. For instance, a neural network may be constructedand used for the purposes of speech recognition, facial recognition,detection of unauthorized activity, machine translation, AI, or thelike.

“Distributed ledger” or “distributed electronic ledger” as used hereinmay refer to a structured list of data records that is decentralized anddistributed amongst a plurality of computing systems and/or devices. Insome embodiments, the distributed ledger may be a blockchain ledger.

“Blockchain” as used herein may refer to a data structure which maycomprise a series of sequentially linked “blocks,” where each block maycomprise data and metadata. The “data” within each block may compriseone or more “data record” or “transactions,” while the “metadata” withineach block may comprise information about the block, which may include atimestamp, a hash value of data records within the block, and a pointer(e.g., a hash value) to the previous block in the blockchain. In thisway, beginning from an originating block (e.g., a “genesis block”), eachblock in the blockchain is linked to another block via the pointerswithin the block headers. If the data or metadata within a particularblock in the blockchain becomes corrupted or modified, the hash valuesfound in the header of the affected block and/or the downstream blocksmay become mismatched, thus allowing the system to detect that the datahas been corrupted or modified.

A “blockchain ledger” may refer to a distributed ledger which usesblockchain data structures. Generally, a blockchain ledger is an “appendonly” ledger in which the data within each block within the blockchainmay not be modified after the block is added to the blockchain; data mayonly be added in a new block to the end of the blockchain. In this way,the blockchain may provide a practically immutable ledger of datarecords over time.

“Permissioned blockchain” as used herein may refer to a blockchainledger for which an access control mechanism is implemented such thatonly known, authorized users may take certain actions with respect tothe blockchain ledger (e.g., add new data records, participate in theconsensus mechanism, or the like). Accordingly, “unpermissionedblockchain” as used herein may refer to a blockchain ledger without anaccess control mechanism.

“Private blockchain” as used herein may refer to a blockchain ledgeraccessible only to users or devices that meet specific criteria (e.g.,authorized users or devices of a certain entity or other organization).Accordingly, a “public blockchain” is a blockchain ledger accessible byany member or device in the public realm.

“Node” as used herein may refer to a computing system on which thedistributed ledger is hosted. In some embodiments, each node maintains afull copy of the distributed ledger. In this way, even if one or morenodes become unavailable or offline, a full copy of the distributedledger may still be accessed via the remaining nodes in the distributedledger system. That said, in some embodiments, the nodes may host ahybrid blockchain such that certain nodes may store certain segments ofthe blockchain but not others.

“Consensus,” “consensus algorithm,” or “consensus mechanism” as usedherein may refer to the process or processes by which nodes come to anagreement with respect to the contents of the distributed ledger.Changes to the ledger (e.g., addition of data records) may requireconsensus to be reached by the nodes in order to become a part of theauthentic version of the ledger. In this way, the consensus mechanismmay ensure that each node maintains a copy of the distributed ledgerthat is consistent with the copies of the distributed ledger hosted onthe other nodes; if the copy of the distributed ledger hosted on onenode becomes corrupted or compromised, the remaining nodes may use theconsensus algorithm to determine the “true” version of the distributedledger. The nodes may use various different mechanisms or algorithms toobtain consensus, such as proof-of-work (“PoW”), proof-of-stake (“PoS”),practical byzantine fault tolerance (“PBFT”), or the like.

“Smart contract” as used herein may refer to executable computer code orlogic that may be executed according to an agreement between partiesupon the occurrence of a condition precedent (e.g., a triggering eventsuch as the receipt of a proposed data record). In some embodiments, thesmart contract may be self-executing code that is stored in thedistributed ledger, where the self-executing code may be executed whenthe condition precedent is detected by the system on which the smartcontract is stored.

Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a system for intelligenterror correction within a blockchain ledger. The system may continuouslymonitor event logs generated by a blockchain ledger and analyze theevent logs using machine learning algorithms. Typically, the event logsare received by the system as unstructured data. In this regard, thesystem may use machine learning to analyze (e.g., read, reformat, clean,or otherwise transform) the unstructured event logs and identify,categorize, and label errors (or exceptions) within the event log. Thesystem may further identify the issue which caused each error and usepredictive analysis to determine whether the underlying issues may becorrected. In particular, the results of the analysis may include 1) themost numerous categories of error; 2) the source and underlying issuescausing the greatest number of errors; 3) tasks that require the mostprocessing time; 4) trend/correlation analysis between differentvariables, or the like.

If the system determines that the errors can be corrected, the systemmay automatically execute one or more processes to correct the errorusing the solutions identified via the analysis. In this regard, thesystem may determine that the process flow for the blockchain ledgershould be updated to remediate the error. For instance, if a reportederror is an “out of gas” error for a blockchain transaction, then thesystem may determine the underlying issue for the error (e.g., aninadequate gas limit). Once the underlying issue has been identified,the system may automatically modify the process flow of the blockchain(e.g., by increasing the gas limit) such that the error is automaticallyremediated via the modified blockchain process flow (e.g., thetransaction may proceed with the increased gas limit).

In some embodiments, the system may further be configured to performreporting functions with respect to the results of the automatic errorcorrection processes. For instance, the system may output data regardingthe performance of the error correction system (e.g., the categories oferrors, recurring issues, percentage of errors automatically resolved,error correction failures, trend analysis, or the like) in variousreadable formats (e.g., a bar graph, pie chart, spreadsheet, or thelike).

The system as described herein confers a number of technologicaladvantages over systems which use conventional methods for errorcorrection. In particular, the system removes inefficiencies andexceptions within the blockchain system by reformatting and conditioningthe unstructured blockchain event log data for analysis and further byautomatically executing error correction processes based on identifiederrors. Furthermore, by dynamically making adjustments to the processflow of the blockchain ledger, the system may significantly reduce theprocessing time of the blockchain processes as well as improve theusability and functionality of the blockchain ledger.

The blockchainledger 122 may comprise a genesis block 200 that serves as the firstblock and origin for subsequent blocks in the blockchain ledger 122. Thegenesis block 200, like all other blocks within the blockchain ledger122, comprise a block header 201 and block data 209. The genesis blockdata 209, or any other instances of block data any blocks in theblockchain ledger 122 may contain various data records. For instance,block data may comprise authentication data, transaction data, documentsor other data containers, third party information, regulatory and/orlegal data, or the like.

The genesis block header 201 may comprise various types of metadataregarding the genesis block data 209. In some embodiments, the blockheader 610 may comprise a genesis block root hash 203, which is a hashderived from an algorithm using the genesis block data 209 as inputs. Insome embodiments, the genesis block root hash 203 may be a Merkle roothash, wherein the genesis block root hash 203 is calculated via a hashalgorithm based on a combination of the hashes of each data recordwithin the genesis block data 209. In this way, any changes to the datawithin the genesis block data 209 will result in a change in the genesisblock root hash 203. The genesis block header 201 may further comprise agenesis block timestamp 204 that indicates the time at which the blockwas written to the blockchain ledger 122. In some embodiments, thetimestamp may be a Unix timestamp. In some embodiments, particularly inblockchains utilizing a PoW consensus mechanism, the block header 201may comprise a nonce value and a difficulty value. The nonce value maybe a whole number value that, when combined with a hash of the otheritems of metadata within the block header 201, produces a hash outputthat satisfies the difficulty level of the cryptographic puzzle asdefined by the difficulty value. For instance, the consensus mechanismmay require that the resulting hash of the block header 201 falls belowa certain value threshold (e.g., the hash value must start with acertain number of zeroes, as defined by the difficulty value).

A subsequent block 201 may be appended to the genesis block 200 to serveas the next block in the blockchain. Like all other blocks, thesubsequent block 201 comprises a block header 211 and block data 219.Similarly, the block header 211 comprise a block root hash 213 of thedata within the block data 219 and a block timestamp 214. The blockheader 211 may further comprise a previous block pointer 212, which maybe a hash calculated by combining the hashes of the metadata (e.g., thegenesis block root hash 203, genesis block timestamp 204, and the like)within the block header 201 of the genesis block 200. In this way, theblock pointer 212 may be used to identify the previous block (i.e., thegenesis block 200) in the blockchain ledger 122, thereby creating a“chain” comprising the genesis block 200 and the subsequent block 201.

The value of a previous block pointer is dependent on the hashes of theblock headers of all of the previous blocks in the chain; if the blockdata within any of the blocks is altered, the block header for thealtered block as well as all subsequent blocks will result in differenthash values. In other words, the hash in the block header may not matchthe hash of the values within the block data, which may cause subsequentvalidation checks to fail. Even if an unauthorized user were to changethe block header hash to reflect the altered block data, this would inturn change the hash values of the previous block pointers of the nextblock in the sequence. Therefore, an unauthorized user who wishes toalter a data record within a particular block must also alter the hashesof all of the subsequent blocks in the chain in order for the alteredcopy of the blockchain to pass the validation checks imposed by theconsensus algorithm. Thus, the computational impracticability ofaltering data records in a blockchain in turn greatly reduces the chanceof improper alteration of data records.

A pending block 202 or “proposed block” may be submitted for addition tothe blockchain ledger 122. The pending block 202 may comprise a pendingblock header 221, which may comprise a pending block root hash 223, aprevious block pointer 222 that points to the previous block 201, apending block timestamp 224, and pending block data 229. Once a pendingblock 202 is submitted to the system, the nodes within the system mayvalidate the pending block 202 via a consensus algorithm. The consensusalgorithm may be, for instance, a proof of work mechanism, in which anode determines a nonce value that, when combined with a hash of theblock header 211 of the last block in the blockchain, produces a hashvalue that falls under a specified threshold value. For instance, thePoW algorithm may require that said hash value begins with a certainnumber of zeroes. Once said nonce value is determined by one of thenodes in the blockchain, the node may post the “solution” to the othernodes in the blockchain. Once the solution is validated by the othernodes, the hash of the block header 211 is included in the pending blockheader 221 of the pending block 202 as the previous block pointer 222.The pending block header 221 may further comprise the pending block roothash 223 of the pending block data 229 which may be calculated based onthe winning solution. The pending block 202 is subsequently consideredto be appended to the previous block 201 and becomes a part of theblockchain ledger 122. A pending block timestamp 224 may also be addedto signify the time at which the pending block 202 is added to theblockchain ledger 122. In other embodiments, the consensus mechanism maybe based on a total number of consensus inputs submitted by the nodes ofthe blockchain ledger 122, e.g., a PBFT consensus mechanism. Once athreshold number of consensus inputs to validate the pending block 202has been reached, the pending block 202 may be appended to theblockchain ledger 122. In such embodiments, nonce values and difficultyvalues may be absent from the block headers. In still other embodiments,the consensus algorithm may be a Proof-of-Stake mechanism in which thestake (e.g., amount of digital currency, reputation value, or the like)may influence the degree to which the node may participate in consensusand select the next proposed block.

FIG. 3 illustrates a process flow 300 for the blockchain errorcorrection system. The process begins at block 301, where the systemreceives, from a blockchain ledger system, a blockchain event log,wherein the blockchain event log comprises one or more blockchainerrors. The system may continuously monitor event logs from theblockchain ledger system in real-time. Typically, the blockchain eventlogs generated by the blockchain ledger system exist as unstructured,unformatted data. The event logs may contain error information about oneor more errors encountered by the blockchain ledger system. Forinstance, the event log may contain an “out of gas” error which may havecaused a transaction to fail or a “connection failed” error.Accordingly, the system may perform various functions on theunstructured data to extract error information automatically, asdescribed in further detail below.

The process continues to block 302, where the system performs textanalysis of the blockchain event log, wherein the text analysiscomprises extracting text associated with a blockchain error from theblockchain event log. The system may use, for example, a naturallanguage toolkit, a Naïve Bayes text classifier, or the like to extracttext in a format that is readable by the system. For instance, the textanalysis may comprise detecting a string of characters that contain“connectionfailed” and determining that the event log contains aconnection failure error. The system may further extract informationrelated to the connection failure (e.g., the cause of the connectionfailure, such as a response timeout).

The process continues to block 303, where the system performs machinelearning analysis of the blockchain event log via a deep neural networkalgorithm. In some embodiments, this step may be performed in parallelto or in conjunction with step 302 above. In this regard, the system mayuse a neural network algorithm to correlate certain characters and/orstrings found in the event log with certain blockchain errors. In thisway, over time, the system may adaptively recognize blockchain errorswhich are not explicitly defined in a repository. Once the errors arerecognized using the neural network algorithm, the system may extractthe identified errors from the blockchain event log and transform theerror data into a recognizable format (e.g., for reporting or furtherprocessing by the system).

The process continues to block 304, where the system, based on the textanalysis and machine learning analysis, performs predictive erroranalysis of the blockchain error. In particular, the system may predictwhether the blockchain error may be automatically corrected based on anumber of factors as determined through the analysis. For instance, thepredictive error analysis may reach a decision based on the source ofthe blockchain error, the frequency of the particular blockchain error,the classification of blockchain error, or the like. The system mayfurther perform a comparative analysis of various factors to determinemetrics such as the greatest frequency of certain error classifications,the blockchain errors that take the most time to resolve, the effect ofthe errors on the blockchain process flow, and other types of trendsand/or correlations.

The process continues to block 305, where the system, based on thepredictive error analysis, performs automatic error correction within aprocess flow of the blockchain ledger system. In particular, the systemmay identify potential solutions to the blockchain error for automaticresolution, as will be further described below. For instance, an “out ofgas” error may be automatically resolved by executing processes such asincreasing the gas supply or increasing the gas limit. In this way, thesystem may minimize the impact of the blockchain errors on the processflow of the blockchain ledger system.

The process concludes at block 306, where the system generates one ormore error reports based on the predictive error analysis. The systemmay output the results of the predictive error analysis and/or theautomatic error correction attempt in a variety of formats which may beused by a user (e.g., an administrator of the entity). For instance, thesystem may output the metrics identified via the text analysis, machinelearning analysis, and/or the predictive error analysis (e.g.,classifications, frequency, or resolutions of errors, or other metrics)as charts, graphs, spreadsheets, formatted text documents, or the like.

FIG. 4 illustrates a process flow 400 for performing automaticresolution of blockchain errors, in accordance with one embodiment ofthe present disclosure. The process begins at block 401, where thesystem analyzes a blockchain error using an error repository. Inparticular, the system may comprise a data repository of knownblockchain errors. Said data repository may further comprise informationregarding known solutions to specific blockchain errors (e.g.,executable code to automatically resolve the error). Accordingly, thesystem may attempt to match the identified blockchain error with acorresponding entry within the error repository. If a match is found,the process may proceed to block 404, where the system updates a processflow of the blockchain ledger system. In such embodiments, the systemmay update the process flow by executing the solution to the blockchainerror as found within the error repository.

If a match is not found within the error repository, the processcontinues to block 402, where the system detects an error component fromthe blockchain error via a text analysis algorithm. In particular, thesystem may use text analysis to extract certain key words or characterswhich relate to errors (e.g., a “connection” and/or “failed” may beextracted and correlated to a “connection failed” error).

Once an error has been identified via the text analysis, the processcontinues to block 403, where the system, based on detecting the errorcomponent, attempts to determine a set of solutions rules. Said rulesmay be found, for instance, within an error and/or solutions rulesrepository. In other embodiments, solutions may be generated usingmachine learning algorithms over time. If suitable solution rules arefound, then the process continues to block 404, where the system updatesthe process flow of the blockchain ledger system using the determinedsolution rules.

If the solution rules are not found, the process continues to block 405,where the system generates a report indicating that a set of solutionrules could not be found. In this way, the system may automaticallycorrect blockchain errors to the greatest extent possible, which in turnminimizes the inefficiencies of the blockchain ledger system inexecuting its processes.
